    Dill they say a bird arriving like that is a messenger bringing news ..... nice thought !!

      [MENTION=9094]satz123[/MENTION] that is a very nice thought, indeed! Now that you mention it, it did have that feel to it. That little bird sitting just outside my window, not 5 feet away did feel like a personal messenger! :happy2: It lifted my spirits, which I must say were a bit low at the time.

      Grateful for my Irish heritage and the celebration of St. Patrick's Day, which seem to have started a wee bit early! :congratulatory:

      Dont forget, you can: start late, start over, be unsure, try and fail AND STILL SUCCEED!

      If it is important to you, you will find a way. If not, you will find an excuse.

        I'm grateful for the clarity of thought that sobriety has brought to me.

            I’m grateful to be sitting inside watching the World Women’s Curling Championship while watching the heavy snow falling outside...
            Quitting and staying quit isn't easy, its learning a whole new way of thinking. It's accepting a new way of life, and not just accepting it, embracing it...
            Worry about tomorrow, tomorrow. Just get through today. Tomorrow will look after itself when it becomes today, because today is all we have to think about.
            Friendship is not about how many friends you have or who you've known the longest. It's about who walked into your life, said "I'm here for you", and proved it.

                I was walking around our pond this afternoon when I realized I was hearing the trills of the red winged black birds, newly returned today! I am grateful for the returning birds. I'm grateful to be af as I walk around the pond during my former witching hour. It doesn't get much better than that!

                  I’ll gratefull for the receding snow pack, with more grass appearing in my yard each day.
                  My life is better without alcohol, since 9/1/12. My sobriety tool is the list at permalink 236 on the toolbox thread under monthly abstinance.

                    Even though I complain about the snow, I'm grateful that there will be lots of ground moisture for good germination...

                      I'm grateful that we missed the latest Nor'easter. It's supposed to warm up into the 40's next week. Yay!

                        I’m grateful for the all you can eat ribs and wings buffet at the local restaurant, neither Bubba nor I felt like cooking tonight!

                          I am grateful that I no longer have to smuggle empty bottles out of the house and into the trash when nobody is watching.

                            Good grief yes. I think that was one of the worst things about drinking.
                            Filling up a bag with empties , putting them in the car boot and heading to the recycle bin has to be one of the most degrading trips we'll ever make.

                              I’m grateful for a gorgeous afternoon once the blizzard blew through. I didn’t even mind shovelling all the snow! I got to do in just my hoodie and Hank loved playing in the banks!

                                Oh my goodness. The vivid memories I have of smuggling the bottles out of the house and then stopping by a trash can. :sad: :sad:

                                I am very grateful that I don't need to worry about that ever again. :yay:
